01' CLK55
Luke......help please????
Luke-
I just ordered some 19" rims/tires for my 01' CLK55. The front rims/tires are a 19X8.5 +35, 235/35/19 and the rears are 19X9.5 +35, 265/30/19.
Will the front rims clear my brake calipers? I had this same combo on my CLK430, but my CLK55 has larger brake calipers......
Any help will be appreciated.
thanks,
AL
